Solution
CD/DVD drive
cannot read
a disc or
takes too long
to start.
The disc is inserted
improperly.
Reinsert the CD with the
label facing up and verify the
disc is securely snapped
down on the spindle.
The DVD drive takes
longer to start
because it must
determine the type
of media being
played before it
can start.
Wait at least 30 seconds to
let the DVD drive determine
the type of media being
played. If disc still does not
start, refer to the solution for
related problems.
The disc is dirty.
Clean the disc with a CD
cleaning kit available in most
computer stores.
